http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=12867 array of bean_b inside bean_a deserializer problem from dot-net Summary: array of bean_b inside bean_a deserializer problem from dot-net Product: Axis Version: current (nightly) Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: Other Component: Serialization/Deserialization AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] One of our service methods takes a bean type with an embedded array of a second bean type. We use Java2wsdl to generate the WSDL, and wsdl2java to generate a java client. The java client works fine. When using a dot-net client from the WSDL file, however, the Axis server cannot deserialize the embedded array of beans. Could this be a bug in the Axis deserializer? Looking at the messages themselves, dot-net encodes the array very differently than Axis (see below). It appears Axis cannot handle this. The beans are: public class XAgentRegBean { private String agentName; private ParamBean[] agentParams; public XAgentRegBean() { } public String getAgentName() { return this.agentName; } public void setAgentName(String agentName){ this.agentName = agentName; } public ParamBean[] getAgentParams() { return this.agentParams; } public void setAgentParams(ParamBean[] agentParams){ this.agentParams = agentParams; } } public class ParamBean { private String _paramName; private String _paramValue; public ParamBean() { } public String getParamName() { return _paramName; } public void setParamName(String paramName) { _paramName = paramName; } public String getParamValue() { return _paramValue; } public void setParamValue(String paramValue) { _paramValue = paramValue; } } When receiving messages from the dot-net client, the Axis server outputs the error messages: 2002-09-18 09:30:46,543 [HttpProcessor[8081][4]] DEBUG xis.utils.JavaUtils - Trying to convert org.apache.axis.encoding.ser.ArrayDeserializer$ArrayListExtension to [Lcom.cotagesoft.common.ParamBean; 2002-09-18 09:30:46,553 [HttpProcessor[8081][4]] DEBUG xis.utils.JavaUtils - Trying to convert [Lcom.cotagesoft.common.ParamBean; to com.cotagesoft.common.ParamBean 2002-09-18 09:30:46,553 [HttpProcessor[8081][4]] ERROR encoding.ser.BeanPropertyTarget - could not convert [Lcom.cotagesoft.common.ParamBean; to bean field 'agentParams[0]', type com.cotagesoft.common.ParamBean If you are still reading, good for you! You may be interested in the following snapshots of the message sent by the dot-net client, and the message sent by the Axis client. Note the way the arrays are encoded differently. Dot-net explicitly sets up an array (id="id2" element)which in turn refers to the elements of the array, while Axis puts the elements of the array in-line (id="id0" element).
